A slew of scathing videos have become the focus in the 5th Congressional District’s Republican primary, as both incumbent U.S. Rep. Doug Lamborn and challenger Robert Blaha trade barbs through YouTube.

In a video released earlier today, the Lamborn campaign hits Blaha for a grassroots radio interview last month, where the wealthy Colorado Springs businessman is on record as saying that often times he doesn’t vote in primary elections.

“I voted in few primaries because you know … in a nutshell I was busy making a living and raising a family,” said Blaha.

In the video called “Too Busy to Vote,” Blaha goes on to say that about a year ago he “woke up” and realized “the permanent political class has stolen our country.”
